Introduction
TheMS6395 MICROATXmainboard isahigh-performance computer
mainboard based on Intel®810M/Echipset. TheIntel®810M/Echipseten-
hancestheperformance ofthefirstgeneration Integrated Graphicschipset
designed fortheIntel®CeleronTMprocessorand Intel®Pentium III processor.
TheIntel®810M/Echipset’sarchitecturealso enablesanewsecurityand
manageabilityinfrastructurethrough aFirmwareHub Flash BIOScomponent.
TheIntel®810M/Echipsetcontainstwo corecomponents:
-Intel®82810EGraphicsandMemoryControllerHub (GMCH)
-Intel®82801BAI/OControllerHub2 (ICH2)
TheGMCHintegrates66/100/133MHz,P6familysystembuscontroller,
integrated 2D/3Dgraphicsaccelerator, 100MhzSDRAMcontrollerand ahigh-
speed hub interface forcommunication within theI/OControllerHub (ICH2).
TheICH2 integratesan UltraATA/100 controller, 2 USBhostcontrollerwith a
totalof4 ports, LPCinterface controller, FWHFlash BIOSinterface controller,
PCIinterface controller,AC’97digitalcontrollerand ahubinterface forcommu-
nication with theGMCH.
